1 Remember, O what is LORD, come upon us: behold, and see our reproach.

2 Our inheritance is turned unto strangers, our houses unto aliens.

3 We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.

4 We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us.

5 Our pursuers are upon our necks: we are weary, and have no rest.

6 We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
